Dear Sheetal Thank you for the question

Sustainable weight management requires a holistic approach which involves lifestyle modification which includes Dietary modification, Physical activity and stress management.
With any weight loss diet, changes take time to reflect as your body requires sufficient time to adapt to the changes in order to show results.
An ideal weight loss plan should include a calorie deficit diet and appropriate exercise regimen followed under professional guidance.

Here are few guidelines that can be considered:
-Have a Diversified Balanced Diet that includes all the food groups in the right quantity which thereby provides you with all the essential macro and micro nutrients that your body requires daily for proper functioning.
- Try to incorporate the My plate Concept by dividing your plate into 4 quadrants, fill half of your plate with fruits and vegetables, the other two quadrants with cereals and protein. A small quantity of dairy intake is recommendable.
-Begin your day with a well-balanced breakfast as it is an important meal of the day.
-Avoid skipping meals. Also, try to avoid fasting and feasting too often.
-It is good to consume six small frequent meals at every 2-3hour interval instead of three large & heavy meals.
-Consume a minimum of 5 serving of vegetables and 1 serving of fruit as they are rich in Fiber, essential minerals & Vitamins as well as they give you a feeling of satiety.
-Try to consume more of Whole grains and Multigrain foods as they are a good source of fiber.
-Limit intake of deep-fried foods. Method of cooking like baking, grilling, boiling, steaming is preferable over deep frying with excess fat/ oil.
-Have your last meal at least 1-2 hours before sleep time.
-Drink adequate amount of water (minimum 8 glasses) of water daily to keep yourself well hydrated
-Engage in at least 30-45 minutes brisk walk/physical activity of moderate intensity at least 5 days a week.
-Try and follow a good sleep regimen in terms of both quantity and Quality.

For a customized and personalized meal plan for specific conditions, please contact your Health care professional.

Dear Sheetal, Thank you for the question

Ideal weight for height can be assessesed by BMI calculation and identifying oneself among its classifications. BMI is a simple index of weight-for-height. It can be considered as a 2nd level indicator of overall health.
WHO has given different BMI (Body mass index) classifications to categorise adults into different weight categories.
It can be calculated using a simple formula of BMI = Weight (kg) / Height (m²)
Following is the WHO BMI Classification
18.5 to 24.9 - Normal
Less than 18.5 - Underweight
25 to 29 - Overweight
Above 30 - Obese
